Need Help Wheel Size.. Decided!
All, 
Thanks for all of your help - going with the Pro Comp 8179 on my JK. Currently, I have SpiderTrax wheel spacers in order to run the the Stock Wheels - I can get rid of these correct?
Would this be the correct size wheel to order:
17x9, 5 on 5 Bolt Pattern; Backspace = 4.75 in.
Going on BFG Mud Terrains 35X12.50X17
Thanks again!

Wheels vary by manufactuer, but I'm running wheels with 5.25" of backspacing and have no clearance problems. I think that you should be fine with 4.75". I think the original concensus was 4.5", but I think anything from 4.5"-5" is alright (again, 5.25" in my case).
